India’s Budget 2016: Will ʹMake in Indiaʹ Make India?

Tuesday, 1 March, 2:00 – 3:00 PM HKT (GMT +8)

India's Budget 2016 is likely to embark upon a new journey towards achieving a simplified and predictive tax regime by bringing in a moderate tax rate accompanied with the phase out of tax incentives. The Government is likely to provide a roadmap to clearly indicate its resolve to walk down this path. However, it is equally crucial to provide the requisite stimulus to existing government initiatives such as 'Make in India', 'Digital India', 'Skill India' and 'Startup India' to facilitate investment, promote innovation, and increase skill development. Will the GST finally see the dawn of the day? Will the overhang of a new GAAR regime and the BEPS implementation blend with other policy initiatives of the Government to accelerate the economic growth or will they take a back seat? We'll discuss:

• Emerging opportunities in Budget 2016.
• Analysis and impact of new direct and indirect tax proposals on your business.
• Optimal course of action in the context of proposed changes: Preparation to Action.
